Zambian Ground Handlers

Day 1

Upon arrival at Lusaka International Airport you will be met by our representative and assisted with immigration and customs procedures. You will then be directed to the domestic check-in counters for your flight to Mfuwe in the South Luangwa.  The flight from Lusaka to Mfuwe will take 1hr 10 minutes.

Day 1 – 5         
Luwi, Nsolo or Kakuli Bush-Camps

Luwi is set inside the National Park, 2 hours’ drive from Mfuwe Airport. It is a remote and what we would term ‘traditional’ bush-camp with only 4 rooms, each made of reed and thatch. Remoteness is the order of the day at this camp as no other tourists will be encountered in this area of the Park. Luwi is predominantly a walking camp with short night drives complimenting morning and afternoon walks.

Nsolo is also set inside the National Park 2 hours’ drive from Mfuwe Airport. The 4 rooms at Nsolo are very spacious, set on raised wooden decks with grass walls and thatch roofs.  Each room is designed differently and has its own veranda and private views across the Luwi sand river bed.

Kakuli is set on the confluence of the Luwi and Luangwa Rivers commanding an impressive view up a stretch of the Luangwa River that is hoome to several hundred hippo. Activities from this camp are again a mixture of walking and driving and the area immeditaely surrounding camp is one of the most game-rich in all of the Luangwa eco-system.

Day 5 – 7         
Mchenja Bush-Camp

Mchenja is one of the Luangwa’s best appointed camps and will be your home for the next three nights.  The tents are custom designed, each has a roll top bath and stunning views of the river, there is also a small plunge pool in the main Chitenge which is excellent for some relief in the warmer months. You will have ample opportunity to explore the area both on foot and in open 4x4 vehicles with a guide. 

Day 7 - 11       
Kaya Mawa

A charter flight from Mfuwe via Lilongwe will take you to Likoma Island in the middle of Lake Malawi, Kaya Mawa represents the best that the Lake has to offer in secluded luxury.

Kaya Mawa will be your home for the final few days of this trip. There are plenty of activities to enjoy both water and land based but as with any remote island hide-away you will want to put plenty of time aside for simply lapping up the beauty and serenity that surrounds you.

After 4 nights at Kaya Mawa you will take another charter flight Back to Lilongwe International Airport for your onward journey home.
